CLIMBING:
ROCK, BOULDERING, ICE, MOUNTAINEERING - - AND, OF COURSE, FOURTEENERING

However you define climbing - - trad, sport, bouldering, ice, or mountaineering, peak bagging, or fourteenering - - the Upper Arkansas Valley / Fourteeners region is your Shangri-La. More rock, ice, and mountaineering opportunities than a person is likely to climb in a lifetime are within easy striking distance of Buena Vista and THE TRAILHEAD. THE TRAILHEAD is the hub of the climbing community in the Upper Arkansas Valley.
